Ta for adding the French BD. It should also have the 4K restoration note. :)

Definitely. I saw the restoration premiere at a film festival, and many archivists and restorers in attendance criticised it for being yet another Fox effort ruined by a certain colorist at Cineric with aggressive tealing and over-darkened. The only other transfer is the older one on all DVDs, with far superior grading much closer to the original. I checked out each BD in turn on release, in hopes of one of them having the older transfer, as sometimes happens. But no luck: they're all identical. I found several French reviews confirming this and there are some lo-res screenshots on the Sidonis website: https://sidoniscalysta.com/western-de-l ... 24589.html
No doubt more will follow.
